I would recommend you look at hostmon from ks-soft.

Very affordable, the developer is extremely responsive. You don't really need to use the remote agents, you can do things from a centralized host if you like. Nice reports and graphs and such.

Hello All

This may be off topic so please forgive me if it is but I thought I might get some usefull suggestions from the other list members. 

Due to a serious shortfall in staffing and increasingly complexity and growth my challenge is to find something we can use in a Windows 2000 AD domain to do some remote monitoring of servers for the basics like disk space, memory and the like (basic system checks and monitoring, nothing too deep just the facts and that’s it really) and if it did event traps it would also be usefull but not neccesary, we are dealing with 140 sites and some 300 servers but would be looking at something that handled a core of 50 servers to start.  We really do not know where to start and being completely honest we just don’t have the time and staff to dig into this, patch management is eating us alive as it is so ANY suggestions anyone can give us or reccomendations would be great.

Oh and if anyone knows anything which is freeware or low cost that would be even better, as usual the need is now and the budget is nil as usual.  So suggestions please all would be much appreciated.

Thanks in Advance all.
